waltappel 1 #26 December 4, 2005 Quotefuck walt, thanks. *wipes tear* That's kind of like thanking me for kicking you in the balls, but you're welcome. I've been on both sides of that scenario and both are really painful--one from an unsatisfied deep yearning for something that will never be, and the other from deep guilt for being a source of heartbreak. That song just fucks me up. No way am I gonna listen to it anytime soon. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sinker 0 #27 December 4, 2005 yeah man. thanks. but i kinda like listening to it... there's a melancholic side of me that likes tragedy, sad depressing songs, that sort of thing... that song brings me right to the brink man. -the artist formerly known as sinker Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites waltappel 1 #29 December 4, 2005 QuoteQuoteBonnie Raitt's "I Can't Make You Love Me" really fucks me up. I've seen her three times and each show was better than the last. She really does put on a great show. I saw her a while back in Houston (The Woodlands) along with Lyle Lovett. I was really surprised at just how good Lyle Lovett was. Naturally, Bonnie Raitt's show was outstanding. For all I know, she may be a totally evil bitch from hell offstage (I really doubt that, though), but she really does project a lot of warmth during her show and she is really, really talented.

Every season at the last regular season home game, the baseball Cardinals do not pay anyone to come in and sing the anthem. The organist gets the song started and then you and 50,000 of your closest friends sing it a capella. I get goosebumps just thinking about it. ~Anne I'm a Doll!!!!

Lyle, IMHO, is one of the most underrated performers out there. Those who know him love him, and those who don't love him just haven't seen him live yet. I think he suffers from a "where does this guy fit?" problem. He's too hip for country; he's too twangy for most rock/pop stations, and he doesn't fit solidly into any category, really. Go to a Lyle show and you will hear blues, country, gospel, folk... sigh. I love Lyle. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

Very, very talented and I'd like to see him again sometime.

"I'm learning to live without you now But I miss you, Baby The more I know, the less I understand All the things I thought I figured out, I have to learn again I've been tryin' to get down to the Heart of the Matter But everything changes And my friends seem to scatter But I think it's about forgiveness Forgiveness Even if, even if you don't love me anymore" - goodness, how I felt that was once, even though I never did anything wrong, but she thought I did.

wildcard451 0 #45 December 4, 2005 I agree with Bobbi....I normally think Rascall Flatss are a bunch of whining "really need a good swift kick in the nuts by John Wayne" babies, but I love the new one they put out called Skin. I also have a hard time listening to Confederate Railroad's - Daddy Never Was the Cadilac Kind. It is the song that makes me think about how much the day my dad leaves this world is gonna suck.
